With the help of Google Maps' satellite view and a friend with access to scans of the National Register of Historic Places registration forms, I was
able to find exact positions. Those of you who have a mobile device can now roam the streets in a more directed way
to locate the historic places of interest to you. You can make the blue star () get closer to
the pin you want to see next by just biking or walking in the right direction. The table of distances below this Google map will tell you what direction
to head in and how far away the historic place is.

Distances and directions

Below are the distances from your current location to each Historic Place. I've decided to let you manually select to start automatic updates of distances
because updating each distance requires a separate query to Google. This can potentially eat up your mobile phone plan's allocated data usage, so it's up to
you to turn that feature on.

Known problems

I and other web developers have noticed that the functionality to locate the current position oftentimes fails with desktop browsers. This is a new
technology and there are certainly still bugs in the way browsers perform this operation. Eventually, this will surely be fixed by the browsers and other
third parties the browsers query.
